I'm selling my Oracle Sun Sparc T4-1 server with 8 cores/8 threads per core (64 threads total) in a Sparc T3-1 case (the outside is identical between them, so it's just a simple system board swap)
You can run Solaris 11.4, Debian Linux, and/or OpenBSD on it natively, and at least with Solaris or OpenBSD as the native OS, you can run VM's using the built-in hypervisor.
It has Oracle ILOM which is similar to IDRAC. I've upgraded it with a 10 Gbe XAUI card (works better on Sparc as the CPU has part of the processing aspect built in), and also got the sliding rails for it.

Specs in detail.
Local pickup zip 98012 preferred, but I have a box to ship it at-cost. I estimated shipping based on 40"x24"x8" and 70 lb and it came out as about $120 to Florida and $40 to Portland to give you an idea of the cost of shipping.
I also have a T3-1 motherboard. If you're a local buyer, I can give it to you for free. I'd also sell it for $50 + shipping to a remote buyer.

Specs in detail.
- 32 GB of memory (16x2GB)
- 2x146 GB 10000 RPM 2.5" SAS drives.
- Trays for all 8 slots, as well as blanks for slots not used for disks.
- Sliding rack rail kit.
- 10 Gbe XAUI network card with fiber transceiver, as well as standatd 4x1Gbe NIC's
- I used these as pass through to a Linux VM because, for some reason, the virtualized NIC didn't work good on Linux. I.e the hypervisor supports hardware passthrough.
- Dual 1100W redundant power supplies.
